10 MILLION LINEAR OUTPUT CYCLES USING CONTACTLESS HALL EFFECT TECHNOLOGY
The HPL Hall Effect Linear Output Pushbutton Switch is a
revolutionary switch utilizing Hall effect technology to provide the
user an output proportional to the travel of the button. The HPL
delivers up to 10 million cycles. This rugged switch is ideal for
applications where a simple on/off control is insufficient and a
linear output is desired. Using the HPL, an operator can control
the motion of a device as well as the speed of the movement. The
HPL switch is an ideal control device for valves and variable speed
drives, and can be used in industrial control, heavy equipment and
material handling applications.
The HPL is offered as a stand-alone switch and in a dual HPL
rocker assembly. As with all OTTO switches, a wide variety of
case and button styles and colors are offered, along with
various termination styles and two levels of sealing. OTTO
can provide custom configurations as well as provide the HPL
switches installed in a control grip.
